We did the tour with Arnaud. It was very interesting.

A tour in a not so distant past. Great collection of interesting pieces in great shape. The radio communication room is a masterpiece

Go back in time to the liberation of the Netherlands: the sound of roaring fighter plane engines, heroic pilots and American paratroopers. The Wings of Liberation Museum tells the compelling story of the liberation of the southern Netherlands at the end of World War II. The museum is situated in the area where, on 17 September 1944, airborne operations as part of Operation Market Garden marked the beginning of the liberation of the southern Netherlands. The timeline comprises the entire period from the occupation in 1940 and the repression years 1940-1944, through to the liberation in the final months of 1944. The museum has an extensive collection including dioramas, photos, tanks, aircraft, and weaponry that was actually used in Operation Market Garden.

Must visit for any war aficionados and armchair generals. Amazing museum dedicated to the airborne liberation of the Netherlands during Operation Market Garden. The guides are extremely knowledgeable and they do a very good job of going through the details. It was amazing to actually touch and climb into WW2 aircraft. The place has a very grounding vibe to it and it really makes you think about those horrid times. If you don't speak Dutch, you can ask for an English guide book at the reception.

What a great suprise this museum is. Well worth the €8 entry. The museum has everything about the battles that occurred in the area 75 years ago ( Operation Market Garden) and is full of displays. The people who run it are volunteers and have a real passion and are more than happy to speak with you. One of the most fascinating parts is the radio display. The guy who runs it is a great character and clearly has a real passion and lots of enthusiasm for his display, amazing is one word of how I could describe the his display. The museum has many other displays from WW2 consiting of mostly British and German military equipment. There is even a C-47 sitting in one part of the building which you can climb inside. Absolutely amazing museum for the price and well worth a visit. A lot of credit should go to the people who run this museum, it's a fascinating place. 5*
